I plan to take my little girl deer hunting this year. She has been sitting with me and been around the harvest the last two years and this year it is time for her to shoot. She will be 6 when the season opens and has been shooting a .22 cricket since Christmas. I have a couple of questions for those of y'all who have been through this. First. I have a Marlin .30.30 I've had for years. Is this too much gun?? I put a SIMS recoil pad on it years ago for my sister who killed her first deer with it at the age of 10. Could I get the stock cut down on it to shorten if for her?? Second. I want to get her something like a Caldwell field pod or the primos version. Which of these would be the best bet for the money?? I want to get her used to whatever gun I choose over the summer so she will be ready. Thanks.
